There were some low temperatures, rain, cold winds and fog during the last days of 2008. However, I didn't get sick since I keep taking vitamin C.

Right now, I'm healthy. Let's hope that it stays that way.

I obviously got my sickness from work, because I made everyone else in my family sick too :x

Yeah, I have. Right on the first, too. Just a cold, but I still feel like total shit.

Amusingly, generic cough medicine works BETTER than the more commonly known brands. I've no idea why, but it's helped me more than anything else has before.

Nope. I hit almost, since I've had some bouts of sneezes and sniffles and whatnot, but nothing too bad. Of course, I'm probably jinxing myself by saying this...

I may jinx myself but I did not get sick during this holiday season.

A miracle really. I tend to get sick around Final exams, but this semester was the exception. (Was also my last semester of college, so maybe fate threw me a bone).

Once or twice I felt like my nose was going to sneeze itself off, but after a night sleep, everything went back to normal.

No. I must be blessed in this regard, because I almost never get sick. Or maybe it's just the viking blood in my veins...

MOTHERFUCKING BIG-ASS BOIL IN MY ARMPIT!

3 PORES! 3!!!

It's gotta' be an infection. I've been getting some massive pimples in random places all over my body. BUT JEEZ! My armpit... it's so damn sensitive. I had to gnaw on something while we attempted to pop it... The hole's also fucking deep and you can see the fatty tissue now since we've been ripping at the skin...

Broken HTML. If you're going to dodge the comment filter, at least do it right, dumbass.

Well I went to the doctor. I had a gaping hole in my arm since we had already gotten most of the puss out. If you want to know how big this hole was, the doc went to inject pain killer via a syringe into the side of the boil and the liquid went into the hole and shot into his face. Anyway, they slit the fucker open and got what was left out of it. Now I'm taking meds, and I have to clear out the rest of the puss that keeps developing inside, but for the most part, it's better.

I just got sick again, but it's like nothing compared to Tanks.

Sore throat, runny nose, ears ringing, headache...

All you people who voted "no"... you have no soul.

I'm going to keep my vote in almost, because I'm not sick, but I have something to share. Half my hair is shaved off right now. Not a full half of my head, but... well, more than half - it was down to my neck at first, but we got it almost to shaving length. Know why?

Fucking LICE.

I don't think that if there is a God, she created these horrible insects. They are the devil's work. If you don't know about them, then congratulations you fucking bastard, you're lucky enough not to get them. I think this is the second time I've had my head shaved because of 'em.

Then again, I usually have my head shaved around winter, for some reason or another. That's not so bad. The bad part about it is that they live off your blood, live on your hair, and their eggs super-ultra-glue themselves to the hair.

EDIT: Just threw up twice. Hoping it's not flu.

I got a minor cold. It lasted 5 days. I felt feverish for a bit, but my body repelled it quickly.

My math teacher has a hideous cold, but it's the same thing I had. I am unaffected. I have had my 1 cold for the season, so with any luck I'll be fine otherwise.

Last year I had a flu superbowl. That was incredibly awful. Norovirus... ugh.

It was a stomach flu. I woke up from my second nap an hour and a half ago, I've taken three Gravol today, and I'm not moving around too much so that I don't puke a fourth time. ____________________	In this hall of death, and by the light of Prometheus' gift, I call thee.
